Classic Al Pacino and classic 70s crime drama (based on a true story). While it may not have reached the heights of Sidney Lumet's 12 Angry Men or Network, it is right up there with Dog Day Afternoon in turning a true story into a compelling film. An honest cop fights a corrupt system - and that system, grit and dirt and all, is presented in an excellent manner. Fans of the genre should not miss out.
